[WP7] ilomilo Doesn't work?

Well I Tried installing apps (Unlocked LEO70, Not activated)
All of the apps installed correctly, but when I install ilomilo it shows up in the games section and when pressed just snaps back into the games section, like it can't boot.
Rise of Glory does the same thing while NFS works correctly and so does everything else I tried.
Any ideas? or maybe someone who tried it and it worked?
Ps,
I Got the XAP from the Mrkt3 Application, and many others aswell.

anyone tried it yet?

WP7 3MktPlace v0.4.zip is not an application for piracy. it allows you to download any of the free apps (trials) from the market place and then transfer to your plone in a xap format.
check it out
back on topic, i have ilomilo on my activated HD2 and it works fine. in fact haven't found an app that doesn't.

Many other games aren't working for me as well!

ilomilo works fine for me...
edit: downloaded from the phone that is

Yes but the program can also unlock/decrypt those trails so they are full which is why the mods said no discussion on this prog/subject. You can have your account disabled for doing so, especially when its previously topic was closed for this reason.
Dont get me wrong the app is great but this just inst the correct forum to be discussing it or asking for help on it.

When installing apps through such means, running xbox live titles is a hit or miss, it's either it works or doesn't, no fix currently and I don't suggest you keep on installing apps so. >.>

doesn't work too

All of the Games work perfectly for me. Make sure you have an Activated phone and it should work when downloaded from Marketplace!

can anyone upload and link me to imolilo please because i bought it and i cant download it through the marketplace for some reason!
Thanks

use Zune
When you buy the game/app it is guaranteed to work (in most cases).. but if sideloaded from what ever means... during the process used to unlock it something didn't copy over correctly and that's why for some games it loads up just fine and for others it does not
Everybody knows that if acquiring something that should've been paid for but wasn't is considered steeling and shouldnt be posted... And like things stolen it is a hit or miss (like mentioned before), but if paid for legitimately and it does not work you by all means are allowed to ask for help or just get a refund

I had the same problem, then I downloaded this one and it works fine!

[TWEAK] Status Bar Tweak for Game Compatibility

This was made for CM7 A3.5, not sure if it'll work right on other builds.
What this does specifically:
1) It makes the status bar 168 in height.
2) It adds 133 padding to the top of the status bar to align the status bar contents back to the bottom.
What it achieves:
1) 16:9 App Space, if a game was designed to compensate via stretch, scale, etc..., for the status bar. A lot of games do.
2) It makes quite a number of games made specifically for 16:9 tablets have better or functional touch UI's so you can actually play them. Dungen Hunter 2 for example will require this. Majesty: Fantasy Kingdom works better with this. Exitium: Saviors of Vardonia needs this to have a fully functional UI in all menu's etc...
Downside:
1) You will have a huge chunk of black space on your status bar. Maybe someone more bord can go elaborate and write a toggle button for this or something. I'm not there yet. Lmao. & I've gotten used to it, so it's not that ugly anymore. I rather have functionality over pretty until ICS comes out.
Instructions:
Back up your
/system/framework/framework.apk
/system/app/SystemUI.apk
copy provided framework.apk to /system
copy provided SystemUI.apk to /system
change permissions of provided framework.apk to RW-R--R--
change permissions of provided SystemUI.apk to RW-R--R--
move provided framework.apk to /system/framework and overwrite
move provided SystemUI.apk to /system/app and overwrite
dungeon hunter 2 and exitium are the best example of what this tweak makes work.
for dungeon hunter 2: the graphics and touch control graphics are aligned to the bottom of the screen while their respective touch location on the screen is aligned to the top. the offset between touch location and graphic makes the game unplayable.
for exitium: the menus and stuff overlaps, you can't even access your cash account online to grab your free coins for buying the game. a lot of menus are overlapped, armor screens are overlapped, etc... because the aspect ratio the GUI was designed for is 16:9.
Game List that this tweak helps on (more 2 come):
Dungeon Hunter 2 Samsung GP1000 version + must have ChainFire3D and Reduce Texture to 16bit.
Exitium: Saviors of Vardonia
Asphalt 5 Samsung GP1000 version

could you post a screenshot?

I'm assuming this wouldn't work on the MIUI ROM.
But you did answer my question about why I couldn't get Dungeon Hunter 2 or Sacred Odyssey working.

well, you need ChainFire3D to get some of the gameloft games working.
toggle 16bit textures on. & try the Nvidia and THD plugins.
this is in addition to ChainFire3D. like Dungeon Hunter 2 was unplayable even when working due to the touch positions being displaced from the visual UI. this helps the put the visual UI @ their touch positions.
also, after you purchase the game from gameloft, you'll have to search the net for the Samsung Galaxy P1000 Tablet apk of the game. there's a thread at rootzwiki on game compatibility that gives a lot of info on how to get some of these games working.

well you guys should really post what's wrong with it when you play it if you're gonna ask questions like this. lol. tested, it seems to be working fine.

Ok so when I play asphalt 6 it looks like the borders are cut off. I cant see the whole car or other things around the border. Is this what this will fix? Sry for the newbism.

Sorry. The game loads and you can log in if you actually signed up and the screen is just black and you can hear music. I also went into settings and disabled the status bar when an app wants full screen and this did not fix the game from staying just black and having music.

Interesting. Maybe I will clean install or something. I tried using chainfire but I am not sure if I am installing the plugins properly. Nothing seems to happen when I try to enable a plugin. Do I need pro?
And you can see your "kingdom"? I'm shocked that the game is working for you.

Whoa, I tried reinstalling without doing anything different and I am stuck on a "Loading" screen. I've been on it for about 10 minutes. About how long did it take you to get past this screen?
Yeah, the game is stuck on the Loading screen. It should be saying "Downloading content" or something like that. Bummer. Not sure what is going on.
I even uninstalled xron and installed CM 7 3.5 and I am stuck on the "loading" screen.

Screenshot?

It's stuck here.

ok, googled the issue, and read complaints about not being able to connect & apparently the game makers of this game are retarded; this game has an issue, not device specific, where people can't connect to the content servers. & are SOL because the game developer is completely ignoring the issue. some people complained about un-install, then re-install, and bricked the game. so I tried that, and bam! stuck at loading screen like you. lmao! i guess try to make a new account and see if that'll let you in. the first time i tried it was with a new acct. obviously it's a server or major development problem if you can get in with new accounts but can't get in with an already active one.
add: no luck with new account either. maybe it's just random luck to get into the content download server? lmao. sry, i didn't think ahead and titanium back my app data for you & me before i un-installed and re-installed. lol. i guess if someone out there could provide titanium back up data on this apps external data we could just restore that and avoid having to connect to download it.

[Q] Any way of disabling CM Welcome screen?

Hello, as the name of thread suggests I need to bypass CM setup wizard, the problem is that on my N4 the lower half of digitizer is not working due to failed bungee jump from my pocket on to concrete. In AOSP the setup screen can be rotated to landscape so I can hit the Next button/arrow, CM setup however doesn't want to move at all. In previous versions of CM the welcome screen was an .apk file in system/app, In CM 11 I can't find it anymore. If anyone has an idea how to disable it I would be very grateful.
Thanks for any suggestions.

New Google Phone app update 05-15-18

There's a new update on the Play Store for the stock Google Phone app. And man they killed one thing I LOVED the most about it, the swipe to the different panels. I would always swipe left to my Favorites, or swipe right to the Contacts, or further swipe to the Voicemail. It was so smooth and fast, to just swipe from anywhere on the screen.
Now it's been moved to the bottom of the screen, no more swiping, now you need to tap on which panel you want. Which to me takes even longer now, and is not as fast and smooth as before.
I have been using the stock Google or ASOP Phone app for years, probably 8 years or so. This change is no bueno.

It was probably done for the benefit of those with phones that had less than quality touch screens and might have activated swipes unintentionally.
I dont mind though.

Oh man. Just go the update, too. I hate it that I can't swipe. In what weird direction is Google moving? I don't get it. They keep removing great features or replacing them with things nobody asked for or things completely out of touch with users.
The argument of the guy above me is kinda invalid. Even the worst digitizer + SoC combo will be able to do a simple swipe. I don't buy that argument, whoever came up with it. Even if they did not. In what world is an inferior, low end device getting a recent Android version on which the latest phone app is available?
Thank god apk mirror exists. AFAIK 18.0.187698947 is the latest and last one with swipe enabled.

Do you have the link for the .apk of a previous Phone app

I take it you're saying the May security update is when your phone app broke, right? If that's the case, you can try flashing the May factory image after removing -w from the batch file. That 'should' rewrite the phone app, but I am not 100% sure it will. If not, a factory reset/reflash with wipe command left in batch file might be necessary unless someone else has an idea.
Maybe try an earlier version apk from apkmirror.com

No the May update was fine, right after the app update started crashing.
But I think I'll try the earlier version from "apkmirror.com" before committing to re-flashing again.

Cool! Good to know you didn't have to do a reset.

Based on the layouts for their new apps like the pixel 2 launcher or chrome beta, it looks like they are making apps easier to navigate with one hand by placing things towards the bottom of the screen. Seems easier to navigate than having to reach to the top of the screen in the prior version.
